Dance Reading Festival returns

Bestselling dance group Diversity are coming to the Hexagon in Reading as part of the line-up of events for this year’s Dance Reading Festival.

The troupe won the third series of ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent in 2009. Following last year’s sold-out “Connected” tour, they are launching Diversity Studios in the near future, which will offer both in-person and livestreamed dance lessons.

They are taking their show, “Supernova”, on a UK tour and it will be at the venue in Queen Walk on Wednesday, November 15 and Thursday, November 16 at 7.45pm. Tickets cost from £32.

On Saturday, December 2, the JUMP! dance showcase will take place at Queen Anne’s school at 7pm. Featuring hip-hop, kathak, ballet, contemporary, belly dancing, lindy hop and tap-dancing from Reading dance schools, groups and professionals, performers are welcome. Tickets for the showcase cost £10.
